Hi everyone! Someone on another post mentioned an Adventure Playground where kids could build and paint thier own play space. This sounds like so much fun! Anyone know where I can find one of these playgrounds? We live in NJ.

Thanks!

There's one in central park, though I'm not sure that's what they were talking about.

Thanks for responding Pizza, but I dont think that's what the posters meant. It sounded like a cross between a garbage dump and a playground, from the description on the other post. Right up my boys' alley!

This one, near Los Angeles, was where I went on a trip in camp as a kid. It was really fun, though rather crowded when we went, so I spent a lot of time waiting in line for the mud slide and rafts and zipline and there weren't many nails to go around. We all had to bring a spare change of clothes for the bus ride home because WE. GOT. FILTHY! Very Happy

Grew up going to some of these in Australia

Some of my best childhood memories.

Seems like they've changed a lot, but still exist.
